This is the Karma Amaris: a two-door, range-extended coupe coming later this year

It snatches design traits from the Kaveya, and tops out at 165mph

Published: 24 Mar 2025

Karma is back at it again with the handsome previews. This one’s called the ‘Amaris’, and it’s a two-door extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) that’s apparently going into production towards the end of this year.

Built around an aluminium space frame, the Amaris’ powertrain includes a turbocharged four-cylinder for support, which helps make for a 0-62 time of 3.5s and a top speed of 165mph. Brisk.

But, more importantly, look at it. The design apparently “follows in the footsteps” of the Kaveya. The clamshell bonnet is met lower down by a feature line which starts at the tip of its nose and stretches right towards the rear track. We’re even seeing a bit of Jaguar XKR there.

Other bits worth mentioning are the 22in ‘Constellation’ forged aluminium alloys and the Americana-style side exhausts, both adding plenty of presence. That taillight cluster isn’t too dissimilar to the original Fisker Karma either.

Karma has also used the launch to announce a reshuffle to its line-up: the Gyesera four-door saloon, which was expected to be an EV, will also get a similar EREV powertrain to the Amaris. Its launch will also be brought forward to this year, while the Kaveya coupe takes a back step, now expected in 2027.
